<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AudioCats</b></div><div>I think that's a little bit of an over-payment for Haula. A 2nd + Reaves dump &lt;-&gt; Haula, so Nylander for a 2nd? I like the idea but I think we can do better.

I really like Donskoi but not at that cap hit.</div></div>

It would be Nylander + cond 1st for Haula - Haula had 29 goals and 55 points with Vegas in 2017, that's very good for a 2C. The condition is protection if he doesn't work out/decides to become a UFA, but a good prospect + 1st for a long-term top 6 player is a fair value. Look at what Pittsburgh gave up for 1-1/2 years of Brassard (I paid less as deadline prices are higher, but similar situation player-wise). Nylander has struggled with pro hockey and his worth isn't that of a normal top 10 pick due to that. Meanwhile, Reaves deal nets Buffalo a 2nd - not bad at all.

I used Evolving Wild's projection for Donskoi, but if Buffalo could get it down a bit that would be fine. I tend to project contract $ higher than I'd actually do (rather save money if it happens IRL, than project too low).

Sujet: Drafting 4th Overall
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojme</b></div><div>Bouchard at 4th is way too high. Arguable dmen at 4 being boqvist and Hughes. Even if they are both somehow gone before we pick at 4, that leaves svechnikov and zadina to pick from.</div></div>

Bouchard at 4th isn’t high at all. Despite London selling off it’s best players like Pu and Thomas, Bouchard led them to the playoffs as a defenseman and led the league in scoring for defensemen at 17 (8th overall in the OHL with 87 points). With Dahlin &gt; Svechnikov &gt; Zadina off the board, Bouchard is likely in the BPA group as well as a needed player.

He also has the size and the tools needed to be successful and is a smart player. I’ve scouted Bouchard (and Hughes and Boqvist) plenty and have him as my highest rated D behind Dahlin. He’s better overall than Hughes, who will likely fit the Ghost Bear mold, and more dynamic than Boqvist).
